What the school offers its staff

High Street today is a happy, hardworking and caring school in the centre of the town. It was inspected in February 2023 and was confirmed as being a good school. Collectively we aim to create a stimulating atmosphere, so as to form warm comfortable relationships between child and adult and so make a successful school where achievement is valued and children of all abilities can flourish.

The school was built at the turn of the 20th century for the children of the local salt workers and has been altered and adapted many times since then. The school has become a 2.5 form entry Primary School, although we have three classes per year group.

The school staff are a very busy, supportive and lively team; it is expected that prospective candidates should be able to contribute to the general ethos of the school. There are currently over 500 children in the school with the majority of year groups containing 3 classes.
